Its funny how you keep living in the past buddy !!!!!
Ok lets compare shall we your Keeper who is he?????
Ours Toldo playes for Inter or Buffon plays for Juve
Proseniski(sp) plays in the first division in England!!!!! Im sure hes better than any Italian player.
Do you have any forwards near the top of Serie A scoring????
Yes No?????
Maybe in your little peaheaded mind you are favorites but I like that because you stay loyal with your team. Having said that its time to think with your head not your heart!!!
One more thing why wasnt Croatia seeded, its based on past performances, and seeing how better you guys did in WC 98. Give that a thought. Like I said before I fear the Mexicans and the Ecudorians much more than the Croates!!!!!
Have a good day!!!!!

Does Italy have any forwards at the top in German Budusliga scoring? Croatia does. Tomislav Maric has 10 goals in 11 games.
Prosinecki can play anywhere he wants to. Bayern Munich (the Club Champions of the World right now) were interested in signing him. He chose to play for Pompey to help a friend that owns the team.
Pletikosa is young and up and coming keeper. He has given up the fewest amount of goals in WC qualifying. But Croatia's defence is the best in the world right now so I suppose his quality could be up for discussion.
Croatia only lost one competetive match since WC'98. Why aren't they seeded? Good fcuking question! Seems like the International organizations (FIFA and UEFA) take 'friendly"(Unlimited subs and B teams) matches into consideration.

1-0 I-ties
The I-ties did play better in the second half after they took off Totti and Vieri. The goal was controversial as it was clear that an I-tie tripped the US player who was in posseision of the ball to strip it away and set up the winner.
All in all I don't think too much can be taken from this game. The I-ties are still very predictable, they'll sit back and defend their one goal lead and hope for the counter attack.
In other group G news Ecuador beat Turkey 1-0 and Croatia bored the fcuk out of it's fans in 0-0 draw.

That just shows that we have alot of quality players in Italia. We have a wide pool to chose from not just the 20 that you guys have.
Think about that man!!!!!!
Another excuse about the friendlies I think you must have a long list!!!

C'mon, Zenga.
If you watched the I-tie game it's obvious I was being sarcastic... Just read about it on any Soccer website...the Italian fans were so disgusted with the Azzurri that they were cheering all the passes made by the US team. Italy is vulnerable....
As for the 'me making excuses??' I don't know what to say except that maybe should re-take that grade one remedial English course.

Despite losing 2-1 to Yugoslavia in Phoenix, Arizona, Aguirre said on Thursday that he now had a much clearer idea of how Mexico will have to play to beat Croatia.
``I've seen Croatia and now they don't scare me at all,'' Aguirre said on arrival in Mexico City. ``They are very orderly but they have a hard time scoring.''
Before the match in Phoenix, Aguirre said he had been losing sleep over their World Cup opener, but added that the friendly with Yugoslavia would help Mexico prepare for Croatia because both teams played a similar style of football.
Despite controlling long stretches of Wednesday's match, Mexico could not get back on terms after conceding two first-half goals to Yugoslavia, who had Dejan Stankovic sent off 10 minutes from time.
Aguirre said he was unhappy about the result and the attitude of his players.
``I'm dissatisfied with the result and the passivity and apathy that we showed after the (first) goal we received,'' he said. ``My teams can have good, poor or average performances, but they must have a good attitude.''
Aguirre said he planned to name his final World Cup squad by April 3 and have them together by April 17.
Mexico, who face Croatia, Italy and Ecuador in group G of the World Cup finals in South Korea and Japan, will play a friendly against Macedonia on March 13 at a venue yet to be determined, Aguirre said.
How about that? A Mexican coach taking the piss out of the 'mighty' Croatians.
Croatia 0 Bulgaria 0
Ireland 2 Russia 0

Good News!
Croatian libero Igor Tudor has returned from a three month injury to score in todays game against Inter. It looks like he hasn't lost a step. Prolific German Bundusliga scorer Tomislav Maric will be making his return from injury next week as will Bayern Munich's Niko Kovac.
They should all hit top form just in time for the World Cup.

hey slav you guys were lucky during qualifying you guys are going to get destroyed in the world cup! you guys didnt even qualify for the euro cup in 2000 what makes oyu think you are going to do good in the world cup!?!?!?
What makes me think we're going to do well in the WC?
The fact that we haven't lost a game for a while now (not sure how long exactly, maybe CDK can help me out there) and also the fact that all our players seem to be in form and only getting better, such as, Igor Tudor, since his return from injury 2 goals in 2 games for Juve, one of which was on Sportsnet Morning am top 3 highlights. And also because we NEVER EVER lost to Italy, or he other 2 teams in the group. We also won't lose a game because simply put, Croatians are winners.
